What drives eviction risk in Elmwood

On the softer side, supply constraint reads 1/10. On the high side, local political climate reads 8.9/10.

This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for Baltimore. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above. Nationally it ranks #45,786 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty.
At 9% renter-occupied this is predominantly owner territory, and comps have to be drawn from further out. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.3/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.
Rent consumes only 12% of average household income of $89,980, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the MD average is 5.5, so this tract runs 1.3 points cooler.
Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
